's impossible not because I can't understand it (it's actually a pretty simple concept) but rather because it is irrational.
Why is it irrational? Explain.
Time is not a thing. It does not have mass or energy, it cannot be seen, felt, smelt or perceived by any other sense.
Gravity does not have mass or energy. Time can be felt and observed. By definition (rough definition), time is the direction in which entropy increases. This can be measured and observed. I feel time pass as I sit here watching my fingers move over the keyboard. In fact, the very idea of motion requires the passage of time.
This is a theory, nothing more. In actuality it's an overstatement of Einstein's theory of General Relativity which combines the three dimensions of space with a fourth dimension which Einstein called time. He never proved that this fourth dimension was actually time nor did he even try to do so. I don't believe it ever occurred to him to try, he and the rest of the Physics world just assumed it was time and went with it.
First, don't use the YEC definition of "theory", it confuses a lot of people. Second, you can't prove dimensions, you define them by observation. That's like saying "prove the definition of a word". Third, it's a statement regarding both special relativity and general relativity, and it is not an overstatement of the implications of either SR or GR.
Further, the theory of relativity predicts things which are logically contradictory when objects approach the speed of light, and so there is major aspects of the theory which are incomplete (i.e. Einstein missed something).
Einstein's theories are not considered incomplete by any stretch of the imagination. The theory may predict things that are counter-intuitive, but they
are not logically contradictory. Every day we hurl objects at speeds approaching light, and every day we observe everything Einstein predicted. I challenge you to a) find a logically contradictory prediction, and b) an academic reference which refers to Einstein's theory as an incomlete theory.
Not even Einstein would have agreed with you on this. Were you aware that there are physicists who are now developing theories which discount the existence of time altogether? You are on extremely thin ground here even scientifically speaking and you have nothing at all to stand on Biblically.
Yes, Einstein would have agreed with me on this. That is why he referred to it as the "fourth dimension". That's why his equations involve not only identifying your position in space, but identifying time as well. And yes, I'm aware of the current trends in physics. Far more aware than you, I assure you. There are ideas, conjectures, and discussions regarding whether or not time exists. And these border on metaphysics. There are not theories discounting the existence of time.
Time travel is not doable. All of existence is now. Both the future and the past do not exist.
Perhaps you should notify the physicists. You've already conclusively answered some major questions.
Now, back to my questions:
Wrong? No, I wouldn't say wrong, but there are several that did not come to pass.
What's the difference between being wrong and not coming to pass? And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD,
if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him." Deuteronomy 18:20-22
And my final question: Why are you so anxious to limit God's forsight? It seems that you are more interested in maintaining your idea of free will than accepting that God can see the future. However, I don't see strong Biblical grounds to support the notion of complete free will. I do see that we are responsible for our decisions and actions, and that could be presented as an argument for free will. However, Paul says in Romans 9 that God raised up Pharaoh just so He could smack Him down. Did Pharaoh have a choice? Obviously not.
Rom 9:17 For the scripture saith unto Pharaoh, Even for this same purpose have I raised thee up, that I might shew my power in thee, and that my name might be declared throughout all the earth.
Rom 9:18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will [have mercy], and whom he will he hardeneth.
Rom 9:19 Thou wilt say then unto me, Why doth he yet find fault? For who hath resisted his will?
